I live in a wee cottage overlooking Kootenay Lake. I live in a beautiful post and beam home by a mountain river. This is where I raise my daughters, dream up lovely frocks, and work. I have worked in many studios over the years…a large workroom with a staff sewing things as fast as I can draft the patterns, the basement of a bridal shop stuffed with gowns, a charming boutique I ran in Canada’s smallest city, the corner of a cabin on the top of a mountain, and various other locations in Vancouver and London and a few other places in between…
…currently I run a sunny and creative space in my home where I continue to ply my trade of twenty years. I love living and working in the Kootenays… I grew up here and feel gratitude that I am able to have my own children grounded in this place of creativity and beauty.
